TOPIC:

With only 30 seconds left and the scores level how on earth at that last centre bouncedown did Fremantle not have anyone on the defensive side of the centre circle??????????
Brayshaw, Young & Serong were all on the Fremantle goal side at that stoppage, allowing Essendon a free run at their own goal if they won the clearance which they duly did, schoolboy stuff!
Also Draper was jumping all over Darcy, so why not bring Jackson in to the ruck in the last few minutes as there is no way he would be jumped over as Darcy cant get off the ground and is really just an old fashioned wrestling style ruckman!

Even more puzzling BH when you consider that even a draw would have kept them in the top 4. Surely they would have practiced these sorts of situations at training and the first strategy would be to prevent a quick breakaway by the opposition??!!
Finals start now for Fremantle, so I suppose if they are good enough to win all 3 from here they deserve to be in the finals. If they lose more than 1 they will miss out and it will be yet another wasted year to file away with all the others

Longmuir has to go. Refuses to pick players in ripping form in the WAFL. Darcy was a late out so brings in Taberner. He refuses to pick Reidy who made a dominant 54 hit outs and 19 possessions. Picked Voss who I thought was ordinary when we played Peel a couple of weeks ago.

Will Brodie racked up 44 posessions and a goal. Erasmus 35 possessions. Both were dominant against us. Coach picks the players he wants so it falls on him. They only gave Longmuir a one year extension beyond this year. I believe that's so they only have to pay out one year.

I done my arse on Freo last week against the Cats who I don’t rate.I saw Treacy limp off against the Bombers,but he came back on in the last couple of minutes and assumed he was good to go  against the catsand after checking all media outlets the next day,backed them accordingly on Monday night.Then on Wednesday the media reported he was in doubt,but I didn’t panic and thought Jackson would just have to play centre half forward,and help Amiss out as a key forward target,as the kid still has along way to go before he furnishes into a reliable power forward.Anyway fast forward into Saturday and the Cats get off to a flyer and kick a few kick goals,and I said to myself what’s happened here and noticed that Jackson was doing all the rucking,while Darcy was on the boundary wearing a track suit jacket!!I later discovered that Darcy was a late out,and the brought in Mat Tabberner and I thought what the Fock!!! That imbecile Longmuir must’ve known Darcy was in doubt all week,and why he didn’t have 205cm Reidy on the emergency list is inexcusable,and as a neutral,my advice would be that he has to go as he’s another Damian Drum markll

All time record , no team has gone from 3rd to no finals in this short a time.

Something only the Shockers could manage.

Flopmuir.
